2nd pregnancy - how far along was you when you started showing?

Hi ladies.
currently pregnant with 2nd baby. Still an early 5 weeks but was just wondering whether other ladies began showing.
my midwife thinks I maybe further along than we think as it looks as tho am already showing.
Surely this isnt possible at 5 weeks?

Thanks for your comments ladies. I personally think its just bloating. Either that or I have got my dates wrong. With my daughter I showed early. You could clearly see I was pregnant at 11 weeks and asked many times if I had got my dates right.
Weve had to tell parents etc as they will be asking over the xmas period why am not joining in the alcoholic celebrations. This my 5th pregnancy. Hopefully 2nd child.

Congrats! I'm 24 weeks and just starting to get a pronounced bump. Yay, finally out of the is she fat or pregnant stage. It's weird this is about the sane time I started showing with my first too but there is a 5 year gap.

Oh it's possible, it happened with me!! The ultrasound should give you a better read of exactly how far along you are. Congrats!! :D

I am 6 wk. This is my 2nd. Showing like crazy here too. Already need stretchy pants. Had hoped to hide it from the in-laws at Christmas...but don't think I'll be able to.

This is actually my third pregnancy, but I didn't carry my second full term. Lost the baby about 12 weeks. Anyways, I started showing really early with this pregnancy. Somewhere in between 8 - 9 weeks I started rounding out. But honestly, I think a lot of it was just bloating and my body knew what to do with all of it.
